Ok. Well, going through the open issues, I'm trying to either
1) address them
2) close them as WONTFIX
(assuming they're simple enough) because there's no value to issues
which we won't address anyway. They just serve to keep IZ maintainers
busy.
I talked to dlr in IRC and he agreed I could close this one as WONTFIX.
Objections?

Erik.
